Finally. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug is out. Many were waiting for it and it was worth it. Part two in the trilogy of The Hobbit takes place sixty years before The Lord of the Rings. Over two and a half hours, it’s a nice long sit-back-and-watch. The movie is exciting, adventurous and has a lot of special effects. With thirteen dwarfs by his side and the famous ring in his pocket, hobbit Bilbo Baggins (Martin Freeman) continues his quest.
